I need to buy some gifts for about a dozen or so co-workers. They range from male, female, young, old, secretaries, teachers, principals, etc. I am kind of looking for a one size fits all type gift and I need it to be cheap without actually appearing cheap.

So far the only thing I can think of is Candles.

Any ideas?

Perhaps I should restate the BOSS part, the MALE part, and add the fact that several are Mormon.

Why do you have to buy gifts for co-workers? Do you want to buy them gifts? I hate that required gift exchange crap.

No, this is out of a pure want. This is my first year teaching, and several people have been very helpful to me.

Oh, well, I don't know. I'm horrible at buying gifts so I'd just get them all a gift card for a favorite store or restaurant.

Write a song then record your jazz band playing it and give everyone a copy.

BTW, I haven't said "howdy" to you in a while, darby. Glad to see you here.

How about free passes to watch darbypitcher22 pitch?!

How about gift cards to Cold Stone or someplace like that? You can get small amounts put on the cards but everyone would probably enjoy them.

Does your local movie theater sell discounted ticket coupons through AAA? It's a gift I've received before, and have always used and appreciated.

BRF - I pity anyone who has to buy a present for you. I doubt you would appreciate it.
